Nationals ace Max Scherzer went back on the injured list with a mild rhomboid
strain in his back. The move is retroactive to Friday. The team recalled
right-hander Erick Fedde from Double-A Harrisburg to replace him.
Nationals manager Dave Martinez emphasized on Sunday the importance of moving
past this back injury, which first popped up following his start on June 30
against the Tigers. He pitched through it and dominated in his next start on
July 6 (striking out 11 in seven shutout innings against the Royals), but it
was nearly three weeks until his next one this past Thursday. The back injury
has lingered throughout the entire month of July and Martinez wants to make
sure it doesn’t continue for the rest of the season.
“I want to make sure that he’s 100 percent,” Martinez said. “We need Max
to be 100 percent to get us through the next few months. Regardless of how, he
’s got to prove to us that he is that.”
Scherzer’s injury interrupted what had been a historic run and almost
certainly the best of his career. He won NL Pitcher of the Month honors in
June following one the best months in perhaps two decades. In a nine-start
stretch from May 22 to July 6, Scherzer, who turned 35 on Saturday, went 7-0
with a 0.84 ERA and a strikeout-to-walk ratio of 94/9.
The Nationals do not want to be without Scherzer for any extended period,
especially considering their rotation depth is already thin.
